Hope you had a great family reunion @RangerRickL!
My goals are no binge eating (along with staying within my calories and exercising every day). Certain foods are a trigger for me, and so far in this month I have been staying away from them.
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? YES -- 55-min outdoor bike ride
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? YES
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? YES2 -
Pass #2 We had 2 grandchildren sleepover last night. They came around 4:00 PM yesterday and stayed until after lunch today; we swam twice, did a backyard scavenger hunt and painted many rocks. We also did lots of reading and watched a few episodes of "Puss and Boots". Did not track but had tons of fun.4

Yes x 3, walking dog for exercise
Aside from UAC goals, I want to work on stress, which means, no checking work emails on days off, and no beating myself up when I don't know everything, or make a mistake. I wear myself out from stress.3 -

Today was the first full day of my camping/road trip through Canadian National Parks. Most of the day was spent driving, but my friends and I planned a few hours on Riding Mt. National Park, where we hiked 9 miles and swam a bit. All of our meals this week are planned ahead of time and healthy, so it should be a great week
I would most like you all to keep me signing in. I'm on MFP everyday, but if I get busy or have too many pass days, I become shy about posting on UAC. Make sure I'm posting, please!5 -

GOALS:
Honestly... my 1 goal...is just to be present... I am such an introvert that I have a tough time just being and feeling involved and present...so that is what I'm working on this month.6 -

A much more active day, returned from our camping trip (so a good couple of hours packing, unpacking and shifting gear into the loft - biggest downside of camping but good for the activity levels). A walk down to the beach in the evening because we missed the sea, also found some nice pieces of Jet on the beach. Over 16K steps.

Spent a great part of my day making travel arrangements and became very future- focused and not so "today-focused". Finally got my act together about 4p.m. (better late than never, I guess!) Did 7.17 mi walk/run. I can't just run because the hills here are crazy and I cannot run up most of them, so I run as much as I can and walk when I have to. I push hard, but am not looking to meet anyone's standard, but my own. I have messed up both my Achilles tendons and one hip in the past trying to run when I should have been walking. Not going to that painful place again!
Tracked everything.
Calories-left 317 and had plenty of yummy food today. I will be sleeping like a baby tonight!
My son and I both skipped our Ab Challenge today, so now we have to do today's crunches added on to tomorrow's. He had max lifts for football today and I was just done after my adventure. We will knock them out tomorrow!4 -

Pass Day 1
Exercise yes
Calories / tracked not so much.
Did well on Sunday in spite of being invited to an unexpected feast. I had packed my salad. yougart and cherries so I just enjoyed other's company not the food. Oh my goodness, beautiful desserts galore!! (Sorry, I digress) Overcame that obstacle.
Monday however was not as successful. Had a stressful day. Have a family member with issues I got myself involved in to try to help and feel helpless and unappreciated. I caved in-- a few extra chips and squash casserole. You know the kind with all the cheesy good sruff. Didn't go crazy just didn't stick to the plan.
All in all feeling good about my goals. Trying to tackle my obstacles one at at a time.
Thanks for being here to help and letting me be a part if this challenge. It means a lot to me3 -
Pass day #2.... better get myself together here! I was on track up until dinner. Went out to a really fancy place with 2 of my friends and lets just say I would have been fine calorie wise if I had just boxed up half my meal. Next time I'm asking for a box as soon as we get our food. I did disfigure my dessert at a certain point to stop continuing to eat. I definitely could've shoveled more in but then I realized what I was doing so I destroyed it LOL!2
